Everyday our senses are overloaded with information. Just think about the drive to work - your brain's working overtime just to keep a steady distance from the cars around you, obeying all the myriad of traffic signs and lights that guide your way. That's not the end of it; you turn on your radio to entertain your ears whilst your eyes take in the plethora of adverts that litter our streets. 'Buy this', 'do that', 'try this', 'this is the most effective', 'this is the best' - wow, it's a wonder how we manage to get to work in one piece at all without our eyes popping out of our head and our ears starting to bleed such is the sensory overload. And yet we do, it's just become part of our everyday existence. As a consequence we have lost touch with the other way of 'feeling', of being aware of the energies that we can't see but surround us all.

So the challenge is this - block out everything that your other fives sense are doing, what they are being bombarded with, and try and awaken a long forgotten and rarely (if ever used) sixth sense - the ability to sense and feel energy. Read on and we'll teach you how to do it, it's really not as hard as it sounds.

Preparation
It's a good idea to try and feel energy in its broadest sense before you try any of the exercises that I've described below. The best way to do this is to get out into nature; this maybe in your garden, in the park or on some country walk, the important factor is being as far away from the distractions of modern living as much as you possibly can.
